Best Practices For Mobiles Applications Development. Developments Carried Out By Small And Medium Enterprises In Mexico.

Software development for mobile platforms demands adapting and sometimes replacing current or traditional technologies and methodologies. The use of Agile Methods seems to be one of the handiest choices. Thus Prosoft has detected an area of opportunity and is now encouraging software development through various mechanisms, such as the creation of regional clusters focused on information technologies. This article presents an analysis towards identification of best practices in software development oriented to mobile platforms (APPs), which allow Mexican software factories to compete at national and international markets. This research is bound to Mexico's Midwest region defined by CANIETI and is directed to the generation of APPs. Several surveys were conducted, generating revealing results which are presented in depth.
